Singles Complete IN HIM

If tomorrow is the end of the world, IT'S A GOOD THING it isn't TODAY!!!! Because if you believe it to be truth, then you still have time to accept Jesus as your Savior!!! When people pass away, they don't automatically go to Heaven. That isn't the default place! We have a choice when we are living on earth that determines our forever after death. And if you haven't accept Jesus in your heart then TODAY IS THE DAY OF REPENTANCE!!! Accepting Jesus isn't just about becoming His child and spending eternity with Him in heaven, it has many more benefits but we have to know what they are and know that they belong to us before we can have them in our life. However, if you choose to not accept Jesus as your Savior, you have a very long, hard, and sad day ahead of you. There is a devil's hell and in that place, there is gnashing of teeth and hurt and pain and suffering. We can experience that here on earth, why would you want to live in eternity like that? N...

I was at a football game recently and it was so exciting seeing all the fans dressed up in their favorite gear to cheer on their team.  Outside the stadium were tailgaters grilling up their best barbeque and playing games to pass the time away. After all, it was 5 hours till the gates opened. Funny how fast time flies when you keep yourself busy doing things that you love. Once the doors were open, fans would walk a ways to even make it to the stadium. But that's okay because everyone was excited and ready for the big game. It was enjoyable seeing some fans with some wild get-ups. They certainly go all out for the game! Fans were packing in the huge stadium, everyone was wearing the same colors, however, only a few that decided to try to pack in the same stadium, took their chances and put on their team colors and were there to support their "the other" team. It's very interesting listening to the people around you. They yell at the referee's most...

Have you ever heard that saying? Well, it can be true for MANY things in our life.  There are lots of things that seem to "paw" at us and make us wonder about "things"! For instance, you may be in an awesome church that worships the way you were taught and sometimes you often wonder what its like to be in a different "religion" or church. You may be in a bad marriage and often "think about" how life would be with someone else. Maybe you don't like your job and not performing the best at it because you are wanting to be somewhere else? There are many times in our life that we are curious about this or that but where did it leave the cat? Ummhmmm, well, being curious is one thing but being controlled by being curious is another. Don't let Satan control your thoughts and get you over into left field which can cause destruction or even death. The only way that Satan can pull us out of the will of God, away from...

"For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Matthew 6:21 Wherever you spend most of your time, that is where your heart is.  Sometimes we are not protecting our hearts and choo se other paths and our hearts get hurt and broken. It tells us in Matthew 6:25 that we cannot serve two masters. We can't give attention to this over here and put God on the back burner but expect Him to produce awesomeness in our life. We have to FULLY, COMPLETELY put our treasure IN HIM! " Do not worry about your life....what you shall eat, what you shall drink." Matthew 6:25 The Griep version would be....Do not worry about your life, what you will eat, drink, how you look, who you will marry. We are sometimes so absorbed in what's that we forget about HIM and if we are all about what's then we are putting HIM on the back burner again. Worry means divided in parts. It is a distraction, a preoccupation with things causing anxiet...

Isn't it just crazy how men and women perceive love differently?  Women feel love when their man only has eyes for them, when he tells them they are beautiful, and goes out of his way for her. Men feel love when their lady respects him, appreciates him, desires him and lets him know how important he is to her. I noticed that a negative cycle can happen if we aren't careful. This could be with any friendship/relationship that you have with anyone. You want to feel all of those things from the other person and if you don't, then you in turn don't give him/her the things they want to feel. A positive cycle can ALSO happen and that is two people loving and giving so much of each other that life is grand! Most of the time in relationships, people tend to become selfish and only want to give if they are given to. However, these things that we call "love" are good BUT is that really love? YES! There ARE two sides to the story...it's not male or...

Isn't it just like God to create such beautiful things for us to enjoy? It is just amazing to see all of the flowers come into bloom and the trees turn a beautiful green when it hits springtime. God created us just as amazing!!! It doesn't matter what season we are in in our life, He can rejuvenate us and and make us renewed day by day. How does He do that? Well, He tells us in Romans 12:2 "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." How do we renew our minds? Just think on good things! Philippians 4:8 tells us to think on things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, and good reports!!! When we start to think on these things, then our minds will change, our attitudes will change, and we will be a better person all around! :)  Bloom like a flower where you are!!! You can be more satisfied about your life just by changing your mind set! If you're talking gloom and doom all day long, ...
